Satellite P100-187 - initial problems (equipment)

Hello..

I have a Toshiba P100-187 with no warranty on it, so I'm in a bit of a slump here...

I'm a technical engineer certified to another company which should be for the stay
no name...

The computer starts very well, but theres no picture during the boot or by post... but when it comes to
Its all fine Windows and theres a nice picture on this subject given that it should be...

Here is a list of things Ive has accomplished so far.

Motherboard replaced (twice)
Replaced the graphics card (twice)
Update Bios
Tried with other processors (I have access to several compatible)
Tried with another RAM (I have access to severel compatible, also tried their single channel in two DIMMs)
Tried with the new view (again, I have access to several screens compatible with this model)

I think it is but I'm not quite sure what that maybe the motherboard is stuck in a kind of a demo mode. How ever, I tried to reset the motherboard on the connector JP8.

Im trying to see if theres any gurus out there with the skills to understand this one cause I absolutely love my p100 (though even his orange) and I want him to live again...

Have you tried to exchange experiences with the Toshiba authorized service provider in your country?
I mean it's the best place to pick up some info on the base - exchange of information between colleagues. ;)

BTW: what happens when you start laptop connected to the external monitor?

  • On Satellite P100 power supply problem

    Hai
    I bought the new laptop Satellite P100. Suddenly it does not start (no power to notebook) and the same time, I have only checked by the only power a/c no result, also do not charge the battery. I put t know what is the reason. Can someone give suggestion?
    Thank you bye.

    If the power light is blinking there is probably a problem with the electronic power supply. In this case, the laptop sends flashes code. Read this code, technicians can identify the problem.
    Please, don't waste your time but the closest service provider contact allowed in your country.
    After 18 months of that guarantee must be valid (it depends of course on where you live) as well as the repair must be free.

  • Satellite P100-240 audio problems

    Hello

    Y at - it software control panel Audio for this model? My friend M100 is a control software provided with the computer that has a wide range of variables to adjust sound its out put.
    On the other hand, nothing for this model except for standard windows volume set Panel. It just seems really strange what HD audio and no advanced to it control system. I tried searching on the web (for the SRS control or other stuff) and found nothing for this model.

    Another problem is that sometimes my audio quality is really bad, you can hear the sound Crackle not even at high volume, internal or external speaker. I tried to restore the couple machine time. Nothing has worked so far.

    my model is Satellite P100 - 240 PSPA3E. Windows MCE

    Please notify

    Concerning

    Laurent

    I guess you have an its installed realtek card. If so, then go to www.realtek.com.tw, download the latest driver for Realtek HD audio and install the driver after removing the sounddrivers of Toshiba.

    After that, you should also have a control panel that is accessible trough the "Control Panel".
    Here, you can set all the settings on your sound card.

    Welcome and good weekend

  • Satellite P100-187 - new graphics card update

    Looks like my gfx on my laptop is dying. I can't enter windown with gfx drivers installed (black screen after the victory logo).
    Can enter windows if I uninstall the drivers of gfx in safe mode.
    By starting a few colors become pink and there are 2 vertical stripes of light on the screen (2cm wide, and is not disapere)

    There's an MXM II on the motherboard to be able to replace the gfx with a nVidia GeForce 8600 M GT 512 MB DDR2 MXM II best or should I get a new Go 7600.

    What worries me is if the laptop could get overheated with the 8600M GT.

    cordially Natal

    Hello

    I'm not a computer genius, but maybe I can help you...

    If you see these scratches even in the BIOS screen, then probably your graphics card is fried. If the glitches only occur under windows, then try to download the original graphic drivers for satellite P100-(shortmodelno) of: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU (if you don't know no short model of your laptop, you can learn it from Toshiba Tempro program) and then start windows in safe mode, uninstall graphics drivers after that restart windows, and install the drivers you downloaded. If it still does not work, try to reset your computer to factory by the recovery disc. And if you're still having problems, then I am afraid your computer may have a hardware failure and you would need to send it to repair.

    Moreover, as long as you do not play video games or use any other application 3D for long periods Geforce 8600 M GT should not overheat your laptop.

    Hope that helps...

  • WLan Satellite P100 - 105L connection problems:

    I have the following problem.

    Satellite P100-105 notes, with XP home. All drivers up to date, connection via WiFi.
    When I connect to the internet using IE7, IE6, Mozilla, Opera a few times I just message "waiting for response from...» "in the status bar and the page not to load not.
    If I update its ok, or to certain pages it won't work even if I update (usually on the typo 3 saving a document).

    1. I have no virus, no Trojan.
    2. try with IE without addons, allso with IE when I was in "safe mode" XP.
    3 downloaded the latest WIFI drivers, latest version of the bios.
    4. when I try on other notes of toshiba, another model with win vista on IE7, it works normally. Allso when I download huge files, its ok.
    5. do you have legal and up to date windows XP with Service Pack 2

    so, I can say 4 things:
    1. it's not caused by signal,
    2. his sweet independent navigation.
    3. it may not be caused by HW error, if he would, large downloads/uploads will fail
    4 any other software, it is stored in the normal state, its not the cause.

    SOMEONE HELPPP

    sound very, very boring.

    > When I connect to the internet using IE7, IE6, Mozilla, Opera, a few times I just message "waiting for response from...» "in the status bar, and the page does not load.

    You said sometimes? So I guess he can't every time while you use the WiFi network.

    > 4. When I try it on other notes of Toshiba, another model with win vista on IE7, it works normally. Also when I download huge files, its ok.
    The two laptops use the same WLan card? If this is while there may be a compatibility problem between the router and the wireless network card

    But generally it is not easy to say what could be the problem. Have you checked the same message is displayed using the LAN cable?
    Check it!

  • Satellite P100 - 115 ACPI problems on Linux

    I have a P100-115 (United States is P105 -?) with geforce 7600. I tried to install suse 10.1. Everything was fine, but after awhile, I noticed a strange thing. The main vent only lights when 65 ° C is reached and the vent on the side left (graphics card) lights never. Then I checked the temperature through Nvidia driver and to my surprise, there were 85 C. So I have concluded that the fan control does not work.

    The main fan light probably because of thermal protection in portable computer because I tried to play with trip points and there was no effect. Now I have to run suse with acpi = off switch because it makes the fan runs all the time. But you can imagine how annoying, this can be. I s there is another user who uses linux unde P100 and P105 and his control of the fan works?

    Has anyone tried to play with the table DSDT of ACPI at?

    Hello

    Well, as much as I know that the Linux Suse 10.1 is a beta version and in my opinion some bugs may appear.
    I have read that many people have problems with Suse 10.1 installation or operation of this Linux distribution.
    I recommend you to visit the official site of support of Suse for more details.
    In addition, you can try to install an early version on Suse or you use a different linux distribution.

  • Satellite P100: View the problem of driver on installation of Age of Empires

    Hello

    I would like to know if there is a solution to the following problem:
    a / inability to implement "Age of Empire": during installation, the system displays the following message:
    Failed to initialize your videocard check if your driver is compatible with direct sampling.

    b / inability to put in place the latest version of the driver downloaded from NVIDIA (91.28_forceware_winxp2k_international.exe) site

    Hello

    I would also try to first install the latest version of the directX application. I think the latest version is 9 c.
    In addition, I would like to say a few words on the graphics drivers. The fact is that driver graphic Toshiba are not similar with the original graphics drivers from the card making. The graphics driver Toshiba supports protection against overheating, because the laptop card has no clean cooling module. The pilot controls the performance of the graphics card and decreases performance and speed if the temperature rises to a higher level.
    In this case, it s advisable to use only the drivers of Toshiba, because other drivers can damage the card.

  • Satellite P100-160 BT icon appears in the Control Panel, but no BT

    Hello

    I have a Satellite P100-160. I am very confused as to whether I have BT or not.

    * Reasons I thought that I had BT: *.
    I thought originally I had, because in 'Control Panel', it has a Bluetooth icon, which when I press on it opens the "Bluetooth devices". I also use WiFi I thought a sign that BT has been installed and working. I also notice that in Services' there is that something called 'Toshiba Bluetooth Service' running.

    * Reasons I think that now I don't have BT: *.
    However, when I press Control Panel > Bluetooth devices > Bluetooth settings, nothing happens. It's as if the button is dead. And when I try to 'Add a BT device', he finds not all devices. In addition, there is no BT listed in Device Manager.

    .....

    Overall, I am very confused! I bought yesterday wireless speakers after seeing the BT icon in Control Panel (I had read that if this icon was there, I got BT), but having struggled for hours trying to get BT to work yesterday, I came to the conclusion that I don't have BT at all!

    Could someone explain what it means the Bluetooth icon in the control panel? Why is there if I don't have BT? Or, the icon means I have BT but am doing something wrong?

    Thanks in advance! Very frustrated!

    David.

    > Satellite P100-160. I am very confused as to whether I have BT or not

    Satellite P100-160 was NOT equipped with Bluetooth module.
    But maybe the battery BT software has been installed and is why the BT icon is visible in the control panel.

  • Crackle sound windows on Satellite P100

    I have a Satellite P100 and keep problems with the sound, I frequently get crackles of sound effects to Windows, and recently the speakers stopped working for a few moments, then came back. When I tried to turn the volume up I could not access the speaker controls as it said that there is no active device.

    Has anyone else had this problem or has a solution. ?

    Found an interesting thread about crackling noise on the P100 and as the user TDC , said that the audio driver should be updated.
    BUT: Before installing the audio driver updated to at least the BIOS version 2.10 or higher must be installed on the laptop.
    Be careful with the update of the BIOS. Choose the good BIOS and the right update procedure

  • Driver Conexant HD Audio - Satellite P100 PSPA3C Win XP problem

    I have a Satellite P100 PSPA3C MA202C.

    I found on the Web from Toshiba site a new Conexant HD Audio 3.44.0.0 driver version for my laptop (Windows XP, 3 GB of RAM)
    and had the bad idea to install it. After installation, the sound is terrible Crackle and interruptions.
    including the sound of Windows boot at startup, when you first open during playback and audio files.
    When a UC program gets started.
    It's never happened before.

    I acknowledge that during installation, I received a message from the system
    warning that this driver is not signed as having managed the "Windows logo test '.

    However, the same situation stands for previous versions of site Web from Toshiba, like 3.21.0.52, who gave the same problems.
    Then I wanted to let Windows choose the right driver, but it turns
    "Microsoft function driver UAA for HD Audio Conexant Waikiki" which provides its own, but has no audio in (microphone).

    So now I'm stuck with the crackling and interruptions of Conexant, or with Waikiki have no microphone.

    It's strange, because the initial configuration worked well. Unfortunately, I do not know how to restore the original configuration,
    It is not written anywhere, that the system cannot understand itself and of the restoration came with the computer dvd
    only allow for a radical total restoration of the status of the day of sale, which is not acceptable.

    What a disappointing experience!

    Can someone help, please?

    Hello!

    S DVD supplied with the computer are called recovery disks and it's the way to return to the factory settings.
    The disc contains the Windows preinstalled with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba.

    I know it's strange, but in my opinion, there is no other way to solve this problem. So back up your data first HARD drive will be completely formatted.

    Good bye

  • Satellite P100-160: problems of Vista Outlook 2007 download mail from POP3 server

    I am running Vista on a Satellite P100-160 and you just install Office 2007. Initially, Outlook work very well and then changed to send only messages but not get it back. I tried to uninstall and reinstall but no improvement. I know that the server settings are very well because I can run from another machine on the same home network and download the mail.

    I also have Norton security on the computer and I wonder if somehow the Port used to download mail (110) may be blocked. Someone else had this problem or any suggestions on how to fix.

    As a last resort I clean the entire disk and re-install from the product recovery disc and see what happens.

    Thanks for the info.

  • Satellite P100-307 - massive heat problem, keypad heater

    Had my Satellite P100-307 for almost two years now and it's a good and useful media-notebook, but it never HOT side left keyboard, especially games.

    But in recent weeks, the keyboard is pretty HOT and I don't know why! Because I6vgt ´m using only low level applications.

    I did a full restore to clean any virus or other malware, but it continues to get hot, as if I where in the highest graphics modes, the games, but just I m using IE7 and a LateX editor for the creation of PDF Documents - that s nothing for a dual-core processor! Kaspersky 7.0 has been throtteld down, as far as the security is allwoing it.

    So why it s heat like that in 30 to 60 Minutes. He has never done this before, I m sure.

    It s so hot, it's quite unpleasant to work with her, because placing even the heel of your hand next to the touchpad makes my hand sweating!

    Would be grateful for any comment or advice,

    Greetings
    AFK

    Looks like the laptop is overheated, it is a common problem with laptops that are used in a dusty environment (a room with carpet, for example).

    Buy compressed air in a box and spray it in the vents to remove dust.

    Conexant HD Audio (hardware id: HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_14F1 & DEV_5047 & SUBSYS_1179FF31 & REV_1000)

    There has been no official driver published this work in Windows 7 64 bit. It works fine in 32-bit, windows 7, and using different drivers from other sources + partial + fix can be found.

  • Satellite P100-202: problems with screen again

    Hi all! I write about a problem with the screen of my Toshiba P100-202. I recently posted in the thread "Satellite P100-202: screen will freeze" and my current problem is actually quite similar to what is explained in the thread "Satellite P100-119: display no longer works. Here is my story, hoping someone can help me avoid having to send the computer to a technician:
    I decided after my previous problem, get my screen replaced. Everything seemed fine, except on the occaisonal instances, especially when I was using the "Internet Explorer" program, in which the screen sort of will re-start, IE. everything went black for a few seconds (music, etc. However would continue) then (boom) everything should reappear, sometimes in ultra - zoom for a second or two. The computer (OS = Windows 7) would report "problem with NVIDIA graphics driver", and then the operations would continue normally. This happened several times, but not often, and I was not too worried about it. Then, a few days before, I was using the latest release candidate of Internet Explorer 9 and the screen is blacked out and my music has continued and I thought 'OK, no problem' and then after a few seconds, and then the music stopped (and I thought ' uh - oh ') and then the blue screen of death.
    OK, don't panic, reboot, but of course there is no word of welcome, no nothing, just a blank screen, with the backlight still works created a worrisome greyish tint. And then suddenly the mouse appears, followed by the entire screen, so I unwisely rejected the incident. Ten minutes later, same thing and this time, not even the blue screen of death as consolement, just gray nothingness.
    A few days of rest, a dusting of battery, but no, even if I think the operating system works very well (caps lock light work and little purrs and snoring occur as usual), he has no doubt about the fact that the screen is not working.
    PS Sorry if my message is too long, and no, I don't have access to an external display!

    While I'm at it, someone is able to explain why a battery lasting 25 minutes can take several hours or even days to recharge?

    Post edited by: trrttrry

    Unfortunately I can not offer a final solution or diagnosis, but I think you should test the functionality with the original recovery image (recovery DVD) you have with your laptop.

    Install the OS using this disc and test functionality. If the same thing happen over and over again there must be a hardware problem.
    If you need to bring the laptop to the service ask first how much cost repair. Maybe it will be too expensive and you can buy the new laptop instead of paying lots of money to repair this old model of laptop.

  • Satellite P100-347 - problem with the judgment during the game

    I have a problem with my (pspa6e) Satellite P100-347

    After about 10 minutes of play time with games like battlefield 2, the SIMS2 and so on... my pc stops...
    I knew it was close because of high gpu or cpu temp...

    I felt that my laptop was warm, but after playing for a while its normal...

    So I installed HWmonitor to check my gpu, CPU and disk hard temp...

    That's what I show:

    THRM: 61.C - 141.F

    CPU: core0\1 - two 64.C - 147.F

    GPU: turn 85 stable - 90.C
    This normal use... no games...

    HARD DRIVE: 39.C

    Something must be wrong! GPU temp is too high?
    I tried a fresh install of the OS...

    Thnx for all the help and answers!

    Hmm these times can be a little high.

    Most likely there is dust in the radiator. You can use compressed air to remove it. Or as a miracle solution, blow into the vents dust closes in contrast to air circulation.
